hello again

so again i have been lax in posting here but its been a busy few weeks with work amongst other things...i have been keeping up with the excersize plan and have had 3 successful weeks at weight watchers...manage to drop 2 pounds which is great...so i'm now officially at my lowest by almost 2 pounds...

after 3 months i'm down 5 pounds...could be more but i think things are finally starting to turn around...now that work will be slowing down a bit i should be able to get to the boardwalk more often and hopefully once it warms up a bit i'll be able to hit the pool...can't wait for that...

looking to save up for a bike and i think i may look into buying some hand weights to use for swimming...i have flippers and hope the hand weights will help to build up the muscles in my arms...

overall its been a pretty positive month weight and excersize wise...just waiting to hear from school...fingers crossed that happens soon

still here

so i haven't posted anything in awhile...sorry! been super busy with work the last few weeks but have managed to keep up with my excersize routine...made it down to the boardwalk quite a bit even if i didn't do the whole thing i did get at least 3 miles in each time...thats the one thing i like about the boardwalk...i know how much i walked rather than just walking for 45 minutes and guess how much i've done...

have hit a stalemate the last few weeks weight wise...but i just need to keep going and things will change eventually...i have to say though normally when i would hit a wall or hit the skids(as i did a few months ago) i would have just given up...but i'm down 75 and a half pounds over the last 2 and a half years(62 weight watchers and 13 that i managed to hold onto from my highest)...so really the fact that i've gotten as much as i have off has been keeping me going...i DO NOT want to put all that weight back on...after all i've gotten rid of all the "fat clothes" and i'm not getting them back...

my applications are in so its out of my hands! that makes me a bit nervous but whatever...actually got my full transcript from catholic and while not all that impressive i still did better in some classes than i remember and apparently i did take a social work class which, for all my hardwork, i managed to get an A-...who knew???

also making some sort of a dent in my resolution to finish the books on my bookshelf...fingers crossed i get most of it done this year...

until next time...
